Guinness Foreign Extra Stout

Bottle in St Thomas. Pours jet black with a full tan head. Wonderful oak/vanilla aromas with some roasted coffee. Delicious complex flavor headlined by the powerful oak and vanilla, also has a bit of coffee to round out the roasted sweet flavor. Has a medium body, and a burnt woody finish. Wonderful beer, superior to the version found back home.

Bottle shared by Tmoney99. Poured a dark brown color with a small/medium beige head. The aroma showed hints of dark fruits, roasted malt, and a light burnt note. Overall, a little light for a stout. The flavor is much of the same and also a little light for a stout. Dark fruit, slight roast, and light bitterness in the finish. There was also a sour note. Could this have been a little old? Anyway, I’m glad I got to try this one once.

nose is coffee, colour is dark with an off white head. Flavour is rich and smooth with a nice pronounced finish. Damn fine brew

Thick and rich, malty and bitter. Full of flavor, always reliable. It is sweet, with cream, chocolate, and a bit of fruit; balanced by bitter burnt barley, coffee, soy sauce too. Good and reliable.

A very tasty variety of the classic Guiness stout. Hard to come by, but tasty. Bitter and flavorful!

Black. Rocky brown head, fluffy and 1 inch thick. Bitter chocolate, vanilla and roasted malt aroma with a hint of alcohol. Sweet and sour and bitter, quite vinous in flavor. Long tangy finish. Has that distinct black current Guinness note. Rather light bodied for the sweetness. Strange beer.
